    Well I talked to my parents last week. I was so convinced that my dad was was going to have a tough time with it that I was sick to my stomach before I want over to there house. When I told them they were completely accepting. My mom had no suspicions but my dad said that he did. That was completely opposite of what I ever would have expected. I am still in a fog of disbelief that I am so out! I have told one person at work and am ready to just stop worrying about who might find out about me......it just doesn't matter any more because I'm free from all those constraints of the closet. I'm starting to feel like a different person and it feels pretty darn good. Now if I could just find the perfect bf. Wahoo!

    Thank you to all those that helped me with advice and suggestions. I love you all!!!!!!!!

    The best thing it that my best friend has turned around and has accepted me for who I am. And another friend that heard it from him is also accepting. So far I have lost no one. I'm sure it will happen but all the most important people in my life are being so cool! I wana cry I'm so happy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I just wish everyone could be as lucky as I have been. I wish every parent was as accepting as mine.
